Precipitation is a crucial component of water cycle and play a key role in hydrological processes. Traditionally, gauge-based precipitation is the main method to achieve high accuracy of rainfall estimation, but its distribution is sparsely in mountainous areas. Recently, satellite-based precipitation products (SPPs) provide grid-based precipitation with spatio-temporal variability, but SPPs contain a lot of uncertainty in estimated precipitation, and the spatial resolution quite coarse. To overcome these limitations, this study aims to generate new grid-based daily precipitation using Automatic weather system (AWS) in Korea and multiple SPPs(i.e. CHIRPSv2, CMORPH, GSMaP, TRMMv7) during the period of 2003-2017. And this study used a machine learning based Random Forest (RF) model for generating new merging precipitation. In addition, several statistical linear merging methods are used to compare with the results of the RF model. In order to investigate the efficiency of RF, observed data from 64 observed Automated Synoptic Observation System (ASOS) were collected to evaluate the accuracy of the products through Kling-Gupta efficiency (KGE), probability of detection (POD), false alarm rate (FAR), and critical success index (CSI). As a result, the new precipitation generated through the random forest model showed higher accuracy than each satellite rainfall product and spatio-temporal variability was better reflected than other statistical merging methods. Therefore, a random forest-based ensemble satellite precipitation product can be efficiently used for hydrological simulations in ungauged basins such as the Mekong River.

This study attempts to classify 1008 alley markets in Seoul through cluster analysis using Dynamic Time Warping, one of the methods used to analyze the similarity of time series, and evaluate the possibility of opening new stores. The sequence of the gross sales of an alley market and that of gross sales per store stand for the potential of growth and profitability of the market, respectively and are used as variables for cluster analysis. Five clusters are obtained for the gross sales and four clusters for the gross sales per store. These two types of clusters are again classified as rising and falling trends, respectively, and the combination of these trends produces four categories. These categories are used to evaluate the possibility of opening new stores in alley markets. The results show that the southeast which is relatively wealthy inferior to other regions in opening new stores. Alley markets in the northeast and the southwest are better than other regions such that opening a new store is justified. In the northwest, there are many markets with trend of gross sales and that of gross sales per store moving in opposite directions, and new store openings in these markets should be postponed.

A new high speed addressing method is proposed to reduce the addressing time below lus per line in AC PDP. In this method, the priming discharge is used to achieve a high speed addressing without adding an auxiliary electrode. Two different types of priming discharges were studied to achieve a high speed addressing and also reduce the inherent light output caused by the priming discharge in order to improve the contrast ratio characteristics. In the panel experiment, the addressing was successfully done with a lus address pulse width in the new method and the better contrast ratio was achieved in the Y-A priming rather than the Y-X priming case even though the reduction of the address period was smaller than that of the Y-X priming due to the extra address time for the priming discharges.

Our goal in this paper is to establish inequalities for the moments of new better than used in the moment generating function class ($NBU_{mgf}$). Using these inequalities we propose a new test for exponentiality versus $NBU_{mgf}$ class. Pitman's asymptotic relative efficiency, power and critical values of this test are calculated to assess the performance of the test. We proposed also a new test for exponentiality versus $NBU_{mgf}$ in the right censored data. Sets of real data are used as an example to elucidate the use of the proposed test for practical problems.

For some low-frequency applications such as power-related circuits, NEM relays have been known to show better performance than MOSFETs. For example, in a step-down charge pump circuit, the NEM relays showed much smaller layout area and better energy efficiency than MOSFETs. However, severe process variations of NEM relays hinder them from being widely used in various low-frequency applications. To mitigate the process-variation problems of NEM relays, in this paper, a new NEM-relay charge pump circuit with the self-adjustment is proposed. By self-adjusting a pulse amplitude voltage according to process variations, the power consumption can be saved by 4.6%, compared to the conventional scheme without the self-adjustment. This power saving can also be helpful in improving the power efficiency of the proposed scheme. From the circuit simulation of NEM-relay charge pump circuit, the efficiency of the proposed scheme is improved better by 4.1% than the conventional.

A good school uniform leads students to good behavior and have them enjoy desirable school life. Therefore a better fabric for girls' high school uniform suggested through two series of studies; first, examined the various aspects of current uniforms. Second, made a new fabric for uniform considering elasticity for activity and comfortableness, and compared its characteristics with those of the current uniforms. The results are as follows; 1 Most of students wanted uniforms considering elasticity for activity and wearing. 2. The measurement of the elasticities of the uniform materials showed that the material which was made using the elastic material was more elastic than the currently used material by 42.12% in summer material and 20.05% in winter one. 3. The analysis using the combination of the values of mechanical properties showed that the elastic material was better in the wearing, tactile senses, and drape properties than the current material, even though it was a little worse in shape-stability. 4. To compare the thermal insulation, clo values were measured. For winter uniform, the elastic material was better than the current one in keeping warm. However, This study did not find any big difference between summer uniform materials.

Zirconium is widely applied in industrial area. In this study, the exeperiments are performed to investigate the differences in cutting characteristics of zirconium coated material which deposited on cutting tool using physical vapor deposition(PVD). For comparison, TiN coated tool is used to compare with zirconium coated tool. Experimental results were compared for tool wear, surface roughness and cutting force. The tool wear of PVD coated bites is affected by the various cutting conditions. This new stuff 'zirconium coated tool' wears $33\%$ less and improves surface roughness $23\%$ more in various cutting conditions. Cutting force is analyzed by using various workpiece, and the research strongly confirms that 'zirconium' remains better condition than 'titanium'. As a result 'zirconium' coated tool can be performed far better than 'titanium' coated tool on metal cutting.

There are two types of WSN(wireless sensor networks) in terms of sensor node's capability, that is, homogeneous or heterogeneous WSN. Even though the latter has better performance than the former, it requires some overhead for deploying nodes or clustering the network. In this paper, we propose a new scheme, called VHS(Virtual Heterogenous Sensor-Network), which uses a homogeneous WSN regarding energy in a heterogeneous way. The proposed scheme's performance has been evaluated and compared with other homogeneous schemes by simulation. The results are shown to be better than the other existing homogeneous schemes used in a sample sensor network application.

In this paper, a new super-resolution algorithm is proposed by using successive frames for generating high-resolution frames with better quality than those generated by other conventional interpolation methods. Generally, each frame used for super-resolution must only have global translation and motions of sub-pixel unit to generate good result. However, the newly proposed MSR algorithm in this paper is exempt from such constraints. The proposed algorithm consists of three main processes; motion estimation for image registration, normalization of motion vectors, and pattern analysis of edges. The experimental results show that the proposed algorithm has better performance than other conventional algorithms.

As life expectancies increase continuously over the world, the accuracy of forecasting mortality is more and more important to maintain social systems in the aging era. Currently, the most popular model used is the Lee-Carter model but various studies have been conducted to improve this model with one of them being 6-parametric factor model (6-PFM) which is introduced in this paper. To this new model, long short-term memory (LSTM) and regularized LSTM are applied in addition to vector autoregression (VAR), which is a traditional time-series method. Forecasting accuracies of several models, including the LC model, 4-PFM, 5-PFM, and 3 6-PFM's, are compared by using the U.S. and Korea life-tables. The results show that 6-PFM forecasts better than the other models (LC model, 4-PFM, and 5-PFM). Among the three 6-PFMs studied, regularized LSTM performs better than the other two methods for most of the tests.
